Defining the Toronto skyline, at a height of 553.33m [1,815 ft., 5 inches), the CN Tower is<br />

Canada's National Tower, an engineering Wonder and Toronto's must see attraction<br />

11:30 am Experience Edgewalk at the CN Tower, www.edgewalkcntower.ca<br />

EdgeWalk is CN Tower's most thrilling attraction in its 35 year history, and the first of its kind<br />

in North America. It is the world's highest full circle hands-free walk on a 5 ft (1.5 m) wide<br />

ledge encircling the top of the Tower's main pod. Visitors will walk in groups of six, while<br />

attached to an overhead safety rail via a trolley and harness system. Trained EdgeWalk<br />

guides will encourage participants to push their personal limits, allowing them to lean<br />

back over Toronto with nothing but air and breathtaking views of Lake Ontario beneath<br />

them.<br />

and a visit to the World's Highest Wine Cellar<br />

360 The Restaurant at the CN Tower, one of Toronto's finest, features unforgettable food<br />

combined with a magnificent revolving view of Toronto more than 351 metres (1,151 ft)<br />

below. 360 offers market-fresh cuisine, featuring regional ingredients to ensure an<br />

incomparable culinary experience. Elevation is complimentary with the purchase of a<br />

main course. At 351 metres (1151 ft.), the Wine Cellar is the highest in the world. Created<br />

to resemble a typical underground wine cellar, ours features precision climate and<br />

humidity controls, redwood racks, double cherry doors, a 9,000 bottle storage capacity '<br />

and a tasting table.<br />

Peter George leads the culinary team at the award-winning 360 The Restaurant at the<br />

CN Tower, one of Toronto's finest dining experiences, located at the top of Canada's<br />

National Tower. George, who has been at 360 since 1995, is a graduate of George Brown<br />

College in Toronto and has held positions at various distinguished restaurants and<br />

establishments in the Ontario region.<br />

George grew up in Southern Ontario's farming heartland and credits that with his<br />

commitment to fresh market food and locally grown produce. According to George,<br />

what he sees when he looks out from his kitchen in the sky is "his immediate shopping<br />

area" and he features custom grown herbs, produce and other ingredients from local<br />

farmers and vintners.<br />

As part of a greening project, an extensive organic herb garden on CN Tower grounds<br />

seasonally produces over two dozen varieties of annual and perennial herbs as well as<br />

edible flowers and an assortment of vegetables, which he harvests daiiy to supplement<br />

360's kitchen. Chef George has introduced an innovative menu for 360, incorporating his<br />

own signature—the roots of cooking with a modern flair. The collective efforts of George<br />

and his team have been recognized with several international awards, including DiRoNA<br />

(Distinguished Restaurants of North America), a Best of Award of Excellence from the<br />

Wine Spectator magazine and WHERE Magazine's Most Romantic Restaurant.<br />

360 Restaurant is a sought after location for entertaining as are the various unique event<br />

spaces at the CN Tower thanks to Peter George and his team who ensure the quality of<br />

the culinary experience at Toronto's ultimate event venue for 2 to up to 2,000.<br />
